A highway whose primary directions are north/south is being constructed along the west coast of a region. At one point, a bay obstructs the straight path of the road. Since the cost of a bridge is prohibitive, engineers decide to go around the bay. The figure shows a diagram of the path that they decide on and the measurements taken. If L = 5 mi, what is the length of highway needed to go around the bay? Bay 140° B 135° E 1/8 mi >C 1/8 mi The total length of the highway needed to go around the bay is about miles. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to two decimal places as needed.)
